than glass models generally are. He il
familiar with these matters in every detail
being frequently an expert witness in min.
ing suits in which the ingenuity is taxed in
reproducing the mine in dispute in every con-
ceivable manner. E. G. Salisbury of New
York admitted that this was one of the
most lively camps he had been in. He is
we'll acquainted in Montana camps. having
been in Boulder and Helena in 1871. As to
the mines he had visited he thought them
both grand mines, as good as could be
found anywhere. The mining engineering
OF both was OF a very high charac-
ter, and reflects great credit on
the management. He himself works the
largest gold mine in the South, with an
output of $50 tons a day. The monthly
income is from $4,000 to $1,000. The
area of his holding is 1000 acres. The
ore body is between thirty and forty feet
wide, and il low grade. MI. C.. E. Foote, of
st. Louis. said he had found the trip so far
very pleasant. He was surpr'sed at the
size and substantial appearance of Butte,
having always heard of the place Is simply

AMONG THOSE ON HAM
to welcome the visitors were John w.
Plummer, Superintendent of Granite
Mountain, Angus Mckay, of Granite, Mr..
and Mrs. w. l.. Austin, Toston. At IL
O'Clock the whole p .rty of gentleman re-
paired to the rooms of the Silver Bow Gu
where courtesies were exchanged after
which they returned to the st. Nicholas for
dinner. At 1 o'clock carriages were taken
by the gentlemen of the party for the
Gagnon under the guidance Of President
Clark, General Leggat, c. W. Goodale, j.
B. Knight and W. J. Penrose.
At the Gagnon Mr.. Clark gave
a short account OF the mine as the
first silver mine discovered in Butte and
other matters of interest as to the career
of the mine in hosting works. The party
took the skip and descended to tie various
levels from the 200 to the 600. At 4 p. m.
the party drove to the Parrot mine and
were there informed that the Parrot was
the first copper mine in tie camp, when
they descended to the two lower levels,
every courtesy in his power. Some of the
party preferred to see the Parrot smelter,
and took carriages and went down there.
The ladies of the party about 4 O'Clock
took carriages, and in charge OF Messrs.
Haldorn and McCeig, accompanied by sew
eral Butte ladies, visited points of interest
in the neighborhood.

The Institute will consider the applications
OF gentlemen for membership, and
such az are chosen will be

members of the Institute by their treat
ment so far along the route ia very favor
able to the places visited. The ceurteeies
shown them in Salt Lake were highly ap-
preciated and referred to in terms of praise.
The meetings held in Salt Lake were three.
Secretary Raymond was earnest in cor
recting the mistake made in calling these
business meetings. He says the business
meetings AVE nothing to do with these,
which are simply regular meetings to read
papers, discuss them, attend to election of
members, etc. The present is the
FOURTH UTAH AND MONTANA MEETING
of the Institute, though only the third at
which any papers were read. Several gen.
tleman were interviewed regarding their
impressions OF the town and the mines
they had visited. Secretary Raymond was
OF the opinion that this is q very wide.
awake active camp. He was very agreeably
disappointed by the country up from Salt
Lake. He noticed particularly the we'll
watered valleys along the route. In re-
gard to Butte itself he said it had the
earmarks OF a successful camp. 1t was |
settling down into a low-grade proposition. /
Mr.. Raymond expressed the opinion that |
no camp could hope for permanent
prosperity that could not master the
problem OF o successfully to treat low
grade ore. To say that the ore runs 12O |
ounces doesn't prove the existence Of a
body OF permanent richness. When people |
say twenty or thirty ounces then he was
ready to accept the fact of the camps per.
manent prosperity being much nearer at
tainment. He expressed himself as very
favorably impressed with the completeness |
of the manner in which the Parrot mine ia |
timbered, and the n in which it is |
managed by Superintendent Tibbey as
being fully up to the requirements of the !
quality of rock in which the levels run. He |

The bill prepared by Geo. II. Bates,
Esq, for calling Constitutional State
Convent ton, and which provides for
voting for members of 1t OF the same
time, is an unexceptionAl mode of pro-
ceeding to constitutional reform with
out delay. He did not present his bill
to the Legislature, but nevertheless 1t
is NJ the service of that body II 1t wants
1t. His bill provides for the election OF
one delegate from each hundred In the
State, except Wilmington, which be
would have represented by one mem Der
from each OF the three assessment dis.
tricts. This would make thirteen mem
bors from hundreds in New Castle
County, ninefrom Kent and thirte IN
from Sussex-shirsy five In all. This
would give the Republicans Ave mem.
bers from New Castle ct least, three
from Kent and four from Sussex, or
twelve out Of thirty Ave. He then pro
poses farther that each, county shall
elect Ave mem bers, but that no voter
shall vote for more than three, thus
giving the Republicans two and the
Democrats three members In each
county, and making in all fifty MEM
bers, divided politically into eighteen
Republicans and thirty-two Democrats
This would certainly be more equitable
and non-pArtisan than having solid
Democratic bodies either In the Lsals-
lsture or in the convention. II /. were
mot for office.holders and the expectant
office-holders there would be no trouble
about accepting Mr.. Bates proposition,
and when ell other schemes fell let us
hope that the common sense and good
judgment of the members OF the L agis-
lature may still lead to the adoption of
some such measure as Mr.. Bates pro.
poses.

Indignant witnoat Cause.

Some OF the Democratic papers and

whole OF the six Congressional districts

though IL was contemplated, Mr.. Ran
Aall's district hiss not been obliterated,
and the probability 10 that the Hon.
''Bob" will continue TO represent .
Democratic district from Philadelphia.
This, no viewer, will be entirely owing to
the generosity Of the Republicans who
unlike the Democrats Of the South be-.
neve In honesty In apportionments ~
In other measures. Those whining
Democrats who see such . menstrous
injustice in the Republicans shutting
ont Randall are referred 10 the gerry
msnders their brethren made in the
Southern States to make that section
solid for Democracy. For instance
there Is South Carolina with . Repub
lican majority Of ferty thousand As any
fair and honest election, that Is not per
mitted TO return single Republican
member OF Congress. When the sever
districts were gerrymAndered one wa

parts Of counties, parts Of townships

bays In order to throw the strong Re
publican sections into one district an
left with 25. zoe majority to the Reput
hcans. But the Democratic inventiv
genius for fraud found methods b
which even this abandoned Republics
district has been carried by the Demo

A similar case exists In Mississippi
